"U.S. Military Evacuates American Embassy Staff Amid Haiti Violence"
The U.S. military conducted an operation to augment security at the U.S. Embassy in Haiti, airlifting some American personnel out and bringing others in to boost security amidst escalating violence and gang-led attacks in the country. Haiti has seen mass prison escapes, gunfire at key locations, and a surge in gang activity following the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse, prompting the U.S. Embassy to halt all travel to the country and urge American citizens to depart as soon as possible.
